Connecting the PC

The Maintenance Console serves as an overall system programming tool for the PBX. The Maintenance
Console's Quick Setup lets you easily configure the PBX to apply basic settings such as time and date.
To programme the PBX, connect it to the PC via the MNT or RS-232C port.

IMPORTANT
• When connecting a PC to the PBX via the MNT port, a fixed IP address must be assigned to
the PC. For information about fixed IP addresses, ask your network administrator.
• When connecting a PC to the PBX via the RS-232C port, it is necessary to keep the following
in mind to protect the system:
1.
Make sure that both connector cases (frame ground) of the RS-232C cross cable
(shielded cable) are conductive. If they are not conductive, make sure that both
connector cases of the cable are firmly connected.
2.
If this is not possible, connect the frame of the PBX to the frame of the PC using an
earthing wire in order to prevent difference in the electrical potentials.
